(sorry, no native speaker here...)

I am trying to recreate the micropython firmware as an exercise for myself.

These steps work:
git clone -b v4.4.3 --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git
cd esp-idf/

But this one:
git pull

gives me this error:
_You are not currently on a branch.
Please specify which branch you want to merge with.
See git-pull(1) for details.

git pull <remote> <branch>

[1] 2237 exit 1 git pull_

At which branch the git repo is supposed to be - what did I wrong?
(I am using git 2.40.0 on a GENTOO Linux system.)

CMake Error at /home/esp-dev/esp-idf/tools/cmake/component.cmake:301 (message):
  Include directory
  '/Volumes/MicroPython/esp-idf-4.4.2/components/esp_lcd/include' is not a
  directory.

should it be corrected?

I was very excited to get this board but am still trying to get the display working in Micropython. I have installed the binary from the Micropython download site:
GENERIC_S3-20230426-v1.20.0.bin but it doesn't have the lcd module with it.

INSTALLATION

I downloaded the firmware/T-Display-S3/firmaware.bin from git and installed using:
python -m esptool --chip esp32s3 --port com4 write_flash -z 0x1000 .\firmware.bin
esptool.py v4.6.2
Serial port com4
Connecting...
Failed to get PID of a device on com4, using standard reset sequence.

Chip is ESP32-S3 (revision v0.2)

BOOT MESSAGES

After hitting the reset button I get repeating reboots with the following messages:

SUMMARY

I also tried using -z 0 for the esptool but it didn't work either. I have the Expressif download tool, but haven't gotten it to work for the Micropython flash files.

Thanks for producing this display code. I hope it simply my user error.

If you want to reinit screen after calling the init() method. The deinit() method must be called first, otherwise a second call to the init() method will cause the system to crash. But even if you deinit() and then init(), you will get the error "Failed to allocate DMA'able framebuffer". Comment st7789. c line 2240 code: self ->frame_ Buffer_ Size=0; can fix this bug.

I hope you adopt it.

Hello and congratulations on this brilliant st7789 library upgrade for ESP32 S3 LCD. Very well documented.

I have successfully run many tests from your examples folder on my Lilygo T-Display ES32 S3 using image:
MicroPython v1.19.1-543-gab317a0d6-dirty on 2022-10-30; ESP32S3 module (spiram) with ESP32S3

I would need to display & connect to Bluetooth BLE devices with the T-Display S3, but could not find any core "bluetooth" or "ubluetooth" or "ble" modules on the board when running help('modules').
I have tried importing modules using mip.install("aioble") but 'bluetooth' module is also a prerequisite.
If there is enough memory left, could you please consider adding "bluetooth" module to your version of driver.
(My project is to display MIDI events coming from digital piano over Bluetooth BLE).
Any pointer to what I could be missing, or way to achieve "bluetooth" connectivity with this driver is warmly welcome.

After flashing the firmware.bin file to my TTGO Display S3 I tried scroll.py and hello.py via Thonny. The dependancies
were stored on the board beforehand.
Starting scroll.py or hello.py both results in this error message:

%Run -c $EDITOR_CONTENT
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 13, in
File "tft_config.py", line 15, in config
TypeError: 'width' argument required

How can I avoid this ?
